The drops should be improved a little, sure, but holiday monsters make PvM more fun.

I don't want to hear anything about firebreath until you fight an abyssal deep sea serpent..not to mention 4-7 Of them in a pack.

wouldnt mind if the drop rate was a little higher. i consider myself an average farmer and most holidays i am lucky if i get more than 1 chest.
As for firebreath. There are so many options for places to hunt that you can easily avoid firebreath mobs.

It really just comes down to the time required to kill them vs the reward potential. If I see one at my regular farming places, I typically just recall out and let some other poor schlub kill it. And this mentality, ladies and gentlemen, is why communism doesn't work.

Yea XP is nice for meta pets at least. Too bad you tap out on talisman XP so early what's the most you can even gain from one monster before it stops?
Relic XP will go up on one monster forever though and you are sure to get the full 3xp gains every activation so that's pretty "legit"

Rewards could probably be looked at, none the less people enjoy it more so than not. It's something new, a change, shift etc. I think it's kind of cool that destard turns into a hell zone for 30 or so days. It's not permanent, just something that switches things up and that is a positive thing over-all.
While you might not like it being that you are a veteran since 2013, new players that have joined recently have been pleasantly surprised by the new mobs. They like it, just like you did when we first implemented it too
Don't forget about the thousand+ others that log in every week here!
With that said, we could probably look at the halloween+paragon fire breath damage on dragons, but again i dunno- It's kind of a fun gamble for 30 days too, you know? I dunno.

30 days no destard force you to play different thing, we have a lot of dungeons boss champs sea why still want to farm destard 365

Thanks for the reply @Shane I get your points!
Personally I don't travel there for the loot or rewards... but for those that do it would be nice for them to be buffed. The frustration for me is the special spawns fire breath. You can barley travel around with out getting dropped let alone PVP. Keep the spawns hit points the same but drop the fire breath down to normal or close to it. The Destard thieves and pks provide plenty of risk.

Cool so just because "it's always been this way since holiday mobs have been implemented" I have to avoid playing in dastard. I think new mobs are cool but when a dragon firebreaths my maxed out defense dexxer with dragon slaying armor for half or more of his hp...that's stupid. And the loot is garbage.

Too hot for some it seems..
So lets make it complicated, fire breath remains but instead of barbecuing people on the spot, perhaps add a random effect be that negative or just down right humorous such as :
Turning someone into a random creature.
Turning someone into a random monster.
Teleport randomly.
Most negative effects such as feeble mind etc.
Paralyse.
Dismount.
Poisoned.
Change colour.
Change gender.
Change name.
To name just a few. The above effects would only be of a temporary nature and the effects from changing the player into a monster/creature, any slayer effects would not apply.

Dismount would be interesting...

hunting destard still after 5 years? They did nerf the fire breath already. It used to guarantee death if you got hit by even a drake. Now it caps at 80-90.
